"In the recent budget, the Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne announced that a 20% VAT tax levy will be added to sports nutrition products. Below is an excerpt from the HMRC consultation document:"

Quote:

"The products affected exist pre-mixed in liquid form and also in powder form to be made up into a liquid by the consumer. They are often marketed as supplying energy to enhance performance, accelerating recovery after exercise, providing energy, or building bulk and often contain creatine.
